Ch. 8

SERGIUS

I was still puzzled, sitting in my study room alone. It was already midnight, and yet I couldn't find the right place or how to contact her. I pushed her away for no reason, and now she is the only one who can help me, but I don't even know where she stays. I know nothing about her, and she is my mate. The elders must not hear about this because I don't even know how they would react. They've been on my neck for ages, telling me to find my true mate. I found her, and I pushed her away out of bitterness or out of ego, thinking I was better than her and that she wasn't worth my time. Meanwhile, she was worth every minute and every second of my time.

I tapped my hands on the desk furiously. "She has to be somewhere. She can't just vanish just like that. She can't. She can't just run away." 

At that moment, I heard a loud knock on my door. 

"Okay, can I come in. I have news," he said as I nodded. 

"Get in, get in," I said. He brought in some files and spread them on my desk. I sat there earnestly, waiting for him to give me the information because at this moment I wasn't ready to go through any files. I just wanted to know what exactly was going on and why I couldn't find her, why she's nowhere to be found. 

"First, her name is Fiona. She has family, I guess. And she's not in the Pack. She's nowhere in the Pack. I even have much more bustling news that you wouldn't believe. I can't tell if you were too busy to realize it or if you didn't know she was the one because you never really knew much about her. But she was thrown out of the Pack."

He said as my head made a loud banging sound. 

"What? How the fuck is she thrown out of the Pack? How did it happen? How am I going to find someone who is anywhere in this world? I can't even start pointing out where. I want to start searching. I know she's somewhere, but I don't know where. Please, there has to be a solution for all this. I can't sit down here and let this happen. Honestly," I said to him as he seemed a bit confused. 

"I don't know what to do, sir. I don't know how to explain this to you, but she has gone off the radar. She's clearly a rogue now, and it's too late. Anything you want to do now cannot work because we won't be able to find her."

I felt even more enraged. I couldn't explain why everything angered me more and more, like I didn't even deserve any of this. 

"No, I don't want to hear that news. I don't want to hear you can't find her. You won't find her. She's off the radar. She is somewhere. She's not dead. I don't care what it is. Find her. There has to be a reason why she was thrown out. I want all the details."

I said as he packed up all the files, clearly realizing I didn't need any of them because I had no time to go through them at that moment. Just when he was about to step out the door, he looked at me again. 

"Yvonne is back with her troubles. She wants to see you," he said as I scoffed. 

"I don't care. Let her come in. Just let her know I am not in a good mood before she pisses me off even more." 

I said to him as he nodded. 

Not even up to a second, she came in, a cheesy smile on her face, her hands folded. I couldn't tell if she was angry or excited that I finally let her in. 

"What do you want to say? Say it fast. I don't have time to waste," I said while looking out into space, thinking about how to find this Fiona girl, my true mate whom I pushed away. 

"I guess you're busy or you are not in a good mood," she said as I laughed. 

"Come on, Yvonne. You know I don't have time for this. Go straight to the point. Why are you here?" 

I said again as she took her seat. I groaned in annoyance, knowing she wasn't going to go straight to the point. She just wanted to prove her point that she was important to me, but I just had to sit there and watch her deceive herself first. 

"I need your time. I know you are busy but I am your betrothed. We are meant to be together. How will we be together when you are only here in your study room? You don't give me a chance to prove myself as one of your most important wives in the Pack, in this palace. You have to treat me special. Besides, you know how I feel about this situation with you getting an heir as soon as possible. I am ready to do anything for you. I'm sorry I have not been competent enough." 

She said. 

I couldn't say anything but just stay silent because any word from me now would piss her off, and I wouldn't even care if it did because she was already stepping on my toes. 

"What do you want me to do? I've tried everything. Every time you see how the councils are on my neck for an heir. You even see that this world isn't in my favor anymore. I have to try anything and everything, and at this point, I don't think fucking around is going to help," I said to her as she stayed quiet. 

"You call the love between us fucking around? I am doing everything because I love you, Alpha. I thought you said I was your most special," she said suddenly, doing that teary voice I hated. 

"Please, not now. Don't start with me. Don't even make me get angry at you. I don't really care. You are my betrothed. I never stated it out that I love you. You aren't even my true mate. I want you to know your place." 

I said to her and stood up as she quickly hugged me from behind, so tight it angered me more and more. 

"Let me go," I muttered. 

"No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't let go. What would happen to me if you find your true mate?"
